Safer Internet Day 2010 is coming up on February 9th. The Cyprus Safer Internet Center - Cyberethics, like every year is celebrating this day with many awareness events during that week. The theme of this year's Safer Internet Day is "Think before you post", since data protection is one of our main concerns we encourage Internet users to be extra careful on what they publish or upload online.

For more information please contact Georgina Shitta at georgina@cnti.org.cy.

The Cyprus Safer Internet Helpline has now implemented an online chat applet on its website which allows you to chat with our operators. The applet functions in a manner similar to many popular chat applications like Skype or MSN Messenger. We would like to stress that all messages sent by users via the applet are entirely safe and anonymous.

The Helpline's 7000-0-116 telephone line and the online chat operate between 8pm and 9pm every day.

CNTI/FWC, in collaboration with the Institute for 21st Century Agoras, is organizing a series of seminars which will focus on the methodology of Structured Dialogic Design. During these seminars, we will be reviewing the results of the project "Διάγνωση Αναγκών Μάθησης και Ανάπτυξης στους Οργανισμούς Τοπικής Αυτοδιοίκησης της Κυπριακής Δημοκρατίας" and also the experiences of the facilitators and participants. The goal of this part of the seminars will be to exchange ideas and establish good practices. Please bear in mind the the seminars will be predominantly in Greek language.

Presentations will also be given by Aleco Christakis, Yiannis Laouris, and Paul Hays.

If you wish to partcipate for one day only, the registration costs are €100. For both days, €150. These costs include meals and printed material.
